Starknet Care Package for Coders
Starknet is redefining the very notion of Web3 by tackling one of the most intimidating technical challenges in the industry - scaling a blockchain while maintaining its security and decentralization.

Starknet was the first general purpose ZK-Rollup service on Ethereum in Feb. 2022, and has proved its potential to be a market leader. Essentially, it increases the processing speed, while reducing the cost of operating on the Ethereum blockchain.

As a result, we are seeing a variety of “traditional” tech businesses - payments / social media / AI / online gaming - now being integrated with blockchains using our technology.

Moreover, the Starknet community is a growing pool of global talent - from feisty college students to some of the most illustrious PhDs in the world.

Galileo is Europe's own global navigation satellite system.
Over 3.9 billion Galileo-enabled smartphones have already been sold worldwide. Your own google maps or waze app most probably use Galileo to navigate!
Imagine navigating with Galileo, and being able to evaluate in real-time the quality of the positioning solution on your smartphone.
You might want to know things like: How many Galileo satellites are used on your phone? How is Galileo contributing to your position accuracy? Are the signals being altered?
Be the mastermind of Galileo & develop an app to help us answer these questions by analysing and displaying Galileo data in real-time!

A dataset will be provided with photos of a garment from different angles.

It will have about 30K rows which makes 90K images. The goal is to generate an algorithm that is able to find duplicated or very similar images, which are not from the same set (a set is the 3 photos above). Matching colours, features, bitmaps...

Computationally it is in itself a challenge, because you must be able to cross all the clothing items with all the clothing items, which is a combinatorics of 90K X 90K, that is more than 8000 million computations, it can be faced in many ways because an image is an array of 3 dimensions (RGB).

In terms of coding, the algorithm's veracity and speed of execution will be rewarded. Having the photos for the more advanced groups, it will be possible to generate a website or similar to show the work. And even, if there are more senior groups, the url can be used to deduce the year, the season and the indicators, even the section.

It is a work that combines programming and gives the opportunity to generate an interesting visualisation.

Develop a solution that assists visually impaired passengers from the moment they enter the airport until they board the aeroplane. The solution should enhance independence and ease the entire boarding process.

At our core, we value genuine human connections - striving to facilitate meaningful interactions through in-real-life (IRL) experiences for our travellers.
Your challenge: given a data-set, develop an application that defines travel plans for travellers given their departure & arrival locations, and times. Your application should identify opportunities for genuine interactions between travellers.

"This challenge wants to make work easier for many people.
Imagine yourself preparing the shopping list and then moving around the aisles on the supermarket to find those products and how much time you need to do that.
Our challenge must help the workers who must create purchasing orders (list of materials and quantities) and people who each day must prepare the products listed on those lists to put together and send them to the customers.
Think on the process, and the issues these people face every day, and how they could improve their work if an AI Voice Assistant could help them to improve and provide tools, thanks to the conversational capabilities, to solve issues during the process, such as misplaced products, wrong quantities, or incorrect references, all by speaking normally!!
Current AI resources that can understand natural language and are capable to synthetize voice and meaningful answers, could be a powerful tool to make those people’s work easier and more efficient.
Do you want join our AI Voice Assistant Challenge and make easier the life of a lot of people?
We will provide a sample list of products to have a common starting point for everyone, and our support to help you on any question.
Have a good HackUPC!!!"
